Both Group B and Group C advanced to the upper bracket final yesterday with emphatic victories over Group A and Group D respectively and a victory today would put the winner in a comfortable position.

After seeing compatriot Weiliang 'Fly100%' Lu led them to the success with a triple defeats of Lin 'Wulin' Wu, Zhen 'HopeStar' Xu and June 'Lyn' Park in yesterday’s Group A meeting, Sky took it further and defeated Mykhaylo 'HoT' Novopashyn, Hao 'suhO' Su, Dmitriy 'Happy' Kostin and finally Manuel 'GrubbY' Schenkhuizen in a row.

The Group B quartet, Fly100%, Yanchao 'Lyc' Lu, Xiaofeng 'Sky' Li and Du Seop 'WhO' Chang can now catch their breath as none of them is in danger of leaving the tournament in the group stage, while the European-dominated Group C will have to battle with the winner from the lower bracket final between Group A and Group D.
